The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a chilling warning that cancer cases are exploding around the world, with the disease expected to soon affect more than 90 percent of the global population.
The WHO said cancer remains the world’s second-leading cause of death after cardiovascular disease.
The disease is already killing more than 26,000 people every day.
According to the agency, the world is now seeing nearly 10 million cancer deaths and 20.6 million new cases every year.

Without urgent action, the WHO warns that the number of new cancer cases will soar to 35 million annually by 2050.
That means new cancer cases are projected to nearly double worldwide in less than three decades.
The WHO estimates that one in five people will develop cancer during their lifetime.
Lung cancer remains the deadliest form of the disease.
Cancer Set to Touch Almost Every Family
The WHO’s warning goes beyond individual diagnoses.
The agency estimates that, if current trends continue, cancer will affect 92 percent of people worldwide by 2050, either through their own diagnosis or through the diagnosis of a close relative.
That projection places cancer on course to become a disease that directly touches almost every family on Earth.
